New creatures; the Creator still the Same For ever and for ever: therefore we Win hope from God's unsearchable decree, And glorify His still unchanging Name. We too are still the same ; and still our claim, Our trust, our stay, is Jesus, none but He: He still the Same regards us, and still we Mount toward Him in old love's accustomed flame. We know Thy wounded Hands: and Thou dost know Our praying hands, our hands that clasp and cling To hold Thee fast and not to let Thee go. All else be new then, Lord, as Thou hast said: Since it is Thou, we dare not be afraid, Our King of old and still our Self-same King. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SPOON RIVER ANTHOLOGY: THE HILL by EDGAR LEE MASTERS THE MALDIVE SHARK by HERMAN MELVILLE SONNET: 138 by WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE DOLORES by ALGERNON CHARLES SWINBURNE THE FLIGHT OF THE GODDESS by CELIA THAXTER |
